There is only one problem with being a snowboarder in the UK ....no snow. So one ingenious guy decided to take a skate board, put 8'' air filled tyres on it, call it a mountain board, throw himself down a hill and the sport of mountain boarding was born.

The principle behind mountain boarding is very similar to that of snowboarding. You start at the top of a high hill and ride down at full tilt, while trying to pull off stunts and take on jumps when you have the balls. One of the main benefits of mountain boarding is the speed at which you can pick up the skills to perform at a basic level.

Providing you are more coordinated than a giraffe on roller skates, you should be riding within an hour and after a couple more hours with instruction, you should be able to pull basic stunts and take on some of the jumps.

All our packages come with expert instruction by fully qualified riders, full safety equipment and everything you need to surf the turf. As far as fun, value and originality goes, we think mountain boarding is hard to beat.
